After being flooded with shipping orders for Sprinkles Ice Cream from Dallas, TX, owner Candace Nelson decided to open a new Sprinkles Ice Cream shop in the trendy Preston Center. The new store is slated to open in April 2013 adjacent to the existing Sprinkles Cupcakery with a new cupcake ATM also opening in April 2013.

Sprinkles' Key Lime Cupcake Recipe

                           

On my first visit to Sprinkles in May 2011, I experienced their key-lime cupcakes. I say "experience" because, to quote myself, "It made me do the Dougie". Whenever a cupcake (or any food item) makes you want to dance spontaneously- that's an amazing cupcake. This morning on GMA, Cupcake Wars judge and Sprinkles owner, Candace Nelson, coughs up the recipe for Sprinkles' key-lime cupcakes and reveals a telling secret on how to make it pop. That started my morning off right! Thanks GMA!

                   

Sprinkles Celebrity Cupcake Craze

           

Waking up at 6AM to a tweet that pop star Chris Brown made a 5AM  breakfast run to the 24-hour Sprinkles ATM is pretty cool stuff. Further to then get an email with the above clip confirming the celebrity stan-dom of Sprinkles, only confirms my motto: 'Cupcakes aren't a fad...they're a lifestyle'. The only other bit of news that I like waking up to is that Candace Nelson (queen of the Sprinkles cupcake empire and star of The Food Network's Cupcake Wars) confirmed that DC will have it's own cupcake ATM's soon!  Who knows, maybe I'll see DC's own Raheem Devaughn or Joe Biden in the (cupcake) ATM line like, "C'mon already...choose a flavor" If only Cupcake Lovers... ;-)

PS: Happy Raheem Devaughn Day!!
